The Ralli Museum of Uruguay, located in the city of Punta del Este, is a museum of contemporary Latin American art, one of the most important in the world, and of European art . Founded in 1988, it is the first of the Ralli museums to open its doors. The Harry Recanati Foundation, founded by Harry Recanati, has five museums whose main objective is to disseminate contemporary Latin American and European art. In all its museums, emphasis is placed on Ibero-American art, characters and events, with especially French influences, and on Sephardic Judaism with an emphasis on historical events and milestones. The museums are distributed between South America (Punta del Este, Uruguay, 1988 and Santiago de Chile, 1992), Spain ( Marbella, 2000) and Israel ( Cesarea, 1993 and 2007). Not being for profit, entry to all of them is free. The Ralli Museum is located in the center of the Punta Esteño neighborhood of Beverly Hills, surrounded by a tree-lined park on its property, where "architecture and nature merge in a unique environment." With more than 6,000 square meters, the museum, designed and planned by Uruguayan architects Marita Casciani and Manuel Quinteiro, alternates large exhibition rooms with interior patios where bronze and marble sculptures are erected, The museum exhibits a varied collection of Latin American art, including paintings and sculptures, among which you can find pieces by the Colombian artist Fernando Botero or the Uruguayan Manuel Pailós, as well as works by Salvador Dalí, unique in Uruguay, one of the artists most represented in the Ralli Museums (there are pieces by this Catalan artist in all their locations). In addition to the collections of paintings and sculptures by contemporary Ibero-American artists, European works from the 15TH and 18TH centuries are also exhibited, and other more contemporary ones, for example by the Englishman John Robinson , who is characterized by making bronze sculptures of children playing in life size. Among the recent inaugurations, we can highlight the renowned work of the Brazilian artist Juárez Machado and the circus scenes of the award-winning Argentine Rodolfo Medina. Being part of a non-profit foundation, entry to the museum is free and visitors can explore all its spaces in total freedom.
